Would be great if there was some cockpit video of this farewell tour.

I'd be surprised of some didn't appear after the final flight Eric. Fingers crossed

Would be great if there was some cockpit video of this farewell tour.

I think if I was in that Provost I would have begged, borrowed and stolen every GoPro I could have laid my hands on to get some inflight footage from all angles.

Here's hoping something turns up!

Living in Melbourne, Oz you don't get to see too many Vulcans....
Though in 1966 [50 years ago] one flew into YMEN - Essendon Airport [YMML didn't exist back then].
I was in first form at Essendon Grammar - directly under the N-S runway approach....and it was landing....so blotted out the sun...

I think that was the one and only time one flew to Oz ....

Hi Jafo. I Googled "Vulcans in Australia" Lots of information and photos there.

Den.

The BBC did an article on XH558 on yesterdays news:

I'm not sure if it will be available globally, you'll have to try it and see.

One would assume that's exactly what was happening, according to the twitface feed it was photo sortie for the
winners of the raffle prize on Vulcan to the sky website.
